    I read all the time on this forum to replace instead of rebuild. It seems a new ax15 is about $2000 with tranny and replacement parts ie bell housing and shifter brackets. A rebuild at a local tranny shop is $1600. Is the rebuild really not worth it? They said I get a 2 year warranty and 30k...

    If you took a pictures of side wall tires and in the wheel well. We can give you a better idea of lift size and actual tires size because it's written on the side wall. Also take a picture of of springs sometimes they print the brand name and lift size info on there too.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    You should wrap your fuel injectors as well. If you do a lot of stop and go or slow off roading and live in a Hot climate the wrap is a must.
